Covenant Renewal: Worship as Sacrifice
The purpose of Lord’s Day worship—on Sunday, the first day of the week—is that of covenant renewal. This is not a crazy idea unique to Anglicans or Catholics or even Presbyterians. But it is complicated (as covenants tend to be). Covenants are arranged and tied to the Trinity, and there is no...

Austin Reifel: Covenant Renewal Worship
In my studies of various church cultures across America, I keep returning to one conclusion: we don’t know what church is for. In fact, we have no idea what we’re supposed to be doing on Sunday morning. About the show The Worship Reformation Podcast exists to equip the church with a traditional...

Modern Delusion Part 4: Worship as Praise and Thanks
We have been recently focusing on several “delusions” that the modern church has gotten itself into regarding corporate worship. All of them have crept their way into the church for a variety of reasons, but it is somewhat understandable why they have taken such a firm hold—they are all true on...
-
Modern Delusion Part 3: Worship as Education
The idea that the Sunday morning gathering is for educational purposes only seems to be picking up steam as churches become more thirsty for biblical truth without being equally thirsty for the application of this truth. And while comparatively little attention is given to the singing, almost no...

Modern Delusion Part 2: Worship as Evangelism
Corporate worship is not a solely evangelistic event. Evangelism might occur, and people might get saved. But that is not the sole purpose of our gatherings on Sunday morning. Discover our album Support our work

Brian Jensen: What it Takes to Publish Your Own Hymnbook
What does and does not go into a church's hymnbook will have a tremendous impact upon the health of that church. Join Brian and I as we discuss the things he and his church thought through as they went through the process of publishing their own Psalter/hymnal. It's not something they took…

Isaiah Holt: Sing Your Part
Isaiah Holt has been integral in the development of the Sing Your Part app, an app which is bringing about a musical reawakening within the church. It is no secret that the church has lost much of its former ability to produce congregational singing. Thankfully, this app has been giving…

How Does a Fellow Get There?
The church in America has regressed into its modern style--in other words, we have lost skill, lost tradition, and lost tradition and heritage. Some say that going back to our former style of worship is impossible and unworthy of the effort required. But is it really that difficult? Discover our...

Gendered Piety in Christian Worship
God created men and women differently. This should reflect in every area of life, but especially in congregational worship. But what we find presented in our modern style is rather appalling. Fortunately, there are other ways of executing corporate worship which more closely follow our…

Instruments Befitting a Congregation
This episode attempts to bridge the gap between the high church theology guys and the worship praise band leader, both of whom claim to be pursuing the same thing with their choice of musical instruments. Most people don't tend to think about how the instruments are to be applied to…

A Treatise on Congregational Worship

Complex Music in Church
"The modern style is too complex!" is potentially a valid argument against the modern evangelical worship style, but it lacks the understanding that "complex" is neither bad, nor is it lacking in many of the old hymns we enjoy. Read my article on this subject Support our work

The "Old Hymns" Fallacy
"Why can't we sing any of the old hymns?" can be heard amongst the older generation within many modern churches. But dig a little further, and you'll realize that the definition of "old" needs some work. Read my article on this subject Support our work
